I’ve been accessing the Paul Abbott website to study up on Weber carb procedures and today it looks like the domain is for sale. I realize he sold the business years ago.
There were pages of instructions on everything Weber, especially the 3 barrel.
I hope it’s available on another website.

Thank you. But does this require payment? I’m only seeing archival statistics.

@scrz914
No payment required.

Add the site url and pick a year from the timeline on top and look for days marked with a blue circle.
Hover over that day and it will show you a link to a snapshot of that site from that day.
Click on the link and you can browse the snapshot backup of the site.

The Internet Archive is a fantastic non-profit organization that does more than web crawling. They are a 501©3 and are part of my regular charitable donations as well as in consideration for future estate planning.

Paul moved which suspended the business for a while. Due to health issues ( wife I believe) he subsequently closed the business.
Unfortunate but life trumps car stuff as we all know.

Part of life. Old knowledge and wisdom lost. New things developed and learned.
I was talking to the OG Weber specialist out here in central California and he’s talking about retiring. The good news is his young nephew is working with him and eventually will take over the business.
